He even outpaced shirkers so they stayed with their battalions - well done, Sir

I withdrew so fast my shirkers were my rearguard. Cool

They weren't Austrians they were Grenzers, that evil and ferocious mix of Albanians, Croatians and (I think) Neanderthals. Even silver bullets wouldn't stop them! I had to gather up my skirts and run screaming like a girl.

I wish my infantry similarly screamed like a girl when they retreated after suffering minimal casualties with nobody on their flank. Had they done so, I would have been alerted to their retrograde movements earlier, thus preventing me looking around at one point saying "Wait, where did my brigade go? They were just here shooting just a few minutes ago"

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. Sunday's battle was a decisive victory in the Kobiachi Maru scenario. Laurel leaves for Miko. cheers

However, upon review, the umpires discovered that Capt. Kirk, aka Pat shamelessly cheated. Shocked

Is anyone really shocked. The victory was disallowed. Sad

Miko77 Tue Sep 29, 2020 5:12 pm

What did Pat do again?

Uncle Billy Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:06 pm

He left his guns as a decoy.

Miko77 Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:18 pm

come on - that's not cheating, that's tactical brilliance lol!

Charmead Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:22 pm

I wholeheartedly agree with Miko

Grog Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:56 pm

Hi Guys

Can't play tonight. Have a good game Very Happy

Charmead Wed Sep 30, 2020 1:25 pm

Grog you missed the newest scenario mode yesterday called “hunt Miko down” ... i mean the AI literally steered AWAY from objectives to try to kill him.

Uncle Billy Fri Oct 02, 2020 4:11 pm

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. Tuesday's fight was a completely symmetric battle. Each side attacked a lone division with three of its own. As reported elsewhere, Miko was on the receiving end for the human side. If not for the wisdom of one of his brigade commanders who withdrew his brigade to reorganize, he would have been left wholly unmanned. Embarassed

Mr. Digby Fri Oct 02, 2020 5:00 pm

At least his division facing 3 AI ones did do a little better than the lone AI division facing 3 player ones. Not much, but a little.

Charmead Fri Oct 02, 2020 5:02 pm

I will be there today as well.

Wow - thank goodness for brilliant brigade commanders like you note Kevin. Where on earth would we be without such leaders?

Uncle Billy Fri Oct 02, 2020 6:05 pm

I guess we'll do one from the Pat Commands folder.

Richard Fri Oct 02, 2020 6:11 pm

Which game are you referring to, please? I may well have to update my copies.

Thanks.

Mr. Digby Fri Oct 02, 2020 6:25 pm

Hi Richard, Scourge of War: Waterloo, KS Mod, version 1.33.

Grog Fri Oct 02, 2020 6:45 pm

Not going to be able to play today fellas
Have a good game

Charmead Sun Oct 04, 2020 4:33 pm

Can’t play today gents. But will see you Tuesday most likely

Uncle Billy Sun Oct 04, 2020 4:42 pm

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. Friday's battle was going swimmingly until the French launched an attack into our rear. A certain division commander who was to prevent such an occurrence failed miserably. Sad

DumpTruck Sun Oct 04, 2020 6:28 pm

Unfortunately I cannot make again today, Tuesday is looking promising though.

Uncle Billy Tue Oct 06, 2020 4:14 pm

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. Sunday's battle was a reverse hat trick. Of the three objectives, we captured zero. Embarassed

The scenario is now in the Pat Commands folder.

Miko77 Tue Oct 06, 2020 5:01 pm

Easy scenario today, please. You don't want to put Vince off, right?

Vincent6691 Tue Oct 06, 2020 6:47 pm

I will be 10/15 minutes late, I think.

Grog Tue Oct 06, 2020 6:48 pm

Hi guys Can't play today fellas.
Extended family health issues
Have a good game

Uncle Billy Fri Oct 09, 2020 3:54 pm

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. Tuesday battle was a hard fought one on everyone's favorite map, the Meckel map. The French were able to overcome a determined defense by the Austrian forces. This clears the way for the French to move into Prussian occupied territory.

Miko77 Fri Oct 09, 2020 4:30 pm

Does it mean we're playing as Prussians today?
